Strenx said he had figured out to defeating the Pole? Why is av3k one of the only people who can beat Cypher right now? In what way does av3k seek to return to the top of Quake?
Rakaka is on site in Kiev and had the opportunity to sit down with a few of the Quakers. strenx and Cypher and asks them how they feel about going at it in Kiev, their current skill level and a bit of the future of Quake.

fragster talked to a self-aware Alexey "Cypher Yanushevsky. With losing just one single map he advanced to the playoffs. In the interview the Belarusian talks about a demolished mouse, his match against Cooller and his little secrets regarding the game.Do you see any chance for Cooller winning a Quake Live title? He was quite close at Quakecon where he lost the final against you. He has not got any awards on his Quake Liive site so far.
Cypher: On Quakecon he had his best shape since now, there was everything perfect for him. Of course he lost to Spart1e in the Winnerbracket final but on the last day we played versus Cooller in about 20 practise games. After that he had a good warmup with me so he played better. He was in perfect conditions but I still managed to win against him. It will be very hard to see Cooller to play the way he did at Quakecon.
English or in German.
Kevin "Strenx" Baeza explained that for him right now it is impossible to beat Cypher. av3k caused Strenx to sing "I believe I can fly"? Why is it impossible for him to beat Cypher? What tactic will he use against Cooller, that Cooller has been using on him, should they meet in the semi-final?
Marcel "k1llsen" Paul explained that he hasn't felt confident during the entire IEM V European Championship Finals due his settings feeling off. av3k was beatable going into the series? Why is Cooller his most feared opponent in the tournament? Will k1llsen take time off after this event or launch straight into preparation for the World Championships?
Pelle 'Fazz' Söderman spoke in a video interview about his tournament so far. Cooller accidentally contribute to fazz's loss to Cypher? Did 
noctis' tilt affect their series? Which of Group A's players would fazz rather face in the next round? What is the status of fazz's Quake career right now?
Sebastian 'Spart1e' Siira. Looking at the highs of some amazing matches and comebacks, to the lows of a certain failure to make the top six of the tournament.There is a marginal difference between success and failure in QuakeLive. Sitting with his head buried in his hands, nobody was mistaking on what side of that fine line Sebastian 'spart1e' Siira ended yesterday.

titan. Took a few months to make and for the most part I'm prety happy with the results. There's a lack of community movies coming out atm as opposed to duel movies so hopefully you can appreciate even the shots from publics; although most are pickups / clan matches. Big thanks to brugal for creating wolfcam, it's great.

Nomey and team hero 
wch. Another interesting result was young David "ZenAkU" Addati defeating Peter "Ventz" Kiddson three maps to one. Although a lot of finalists were expected now is time to separate the boys from the men, and the men from our Oceanic hero.
